I know many of us are already casting an eye to fall, and I am too. I'm a little tired of my summer work wardrobe . However, I still have another 5 -6 weeks left of summer wear , weather depending of course, and I have not been happy with my linen pant situation .
This is maybe a pipe dream, but I'd love a pair of long (full length), drapey wide leg linen pants in black . I have now put 3 pair of black linen/cotton blend pants into a donate bag because the fits are off (usually too big and baggy/unflattering ) and the fabric (note the blend ) is subpar .None of these pants look good with all day wear and I imagine I got exactly what I paid for. I still have one pair of wide leg cropped linen/cotton pants and they are ok , but I'd really love a full-length pair . Black linen has been part of my summer work wardrobe for a few years now and I've always assumed I need to have a couple of pair. But maybe I don't?
I'm a poor shopper in that I have little time, so tend to order and keep whatever sort of fits as long as it's not too tight , and don't spend a lot of time on research. I know, I know, but it is what it is. It costs me a lot of money to be this incompetent.
So the question is, do any of you have a really great pair of linen pants that you love and would buy again if you needed to? Anything to recommend? I know my timing is off and it may mean I don't find a pair this year, but in prep for next year, I'm interested in resources I might not have investigated. I have a pair from Massimo Dutti in my shopping cart, and may order those...but not convinced I know what I'm doing with linen anymore. Link below - finds collector not working for me .
